Are the xbox one power cord free?

Hello Rickie how are you?

My name is Ezequiel I'm an Independent Consultant.

Yes, when you buy any Xbox One console the power cable comes with the box.

Your probably going to need the adaptor otherwise you could ruin the powerbrick.

As in the US is 100-127V while EU is 200-240V. Both are 12A * 17.9V = 215W.

Might be a whole new power supply unit rather than just a lead change.

I also stumbled upon that one but it wasn't much of a help. The socket appears to be the similar kind of "D-shaped socket" than in the picture I linked but with just 2 pins. I wonder if such cables are somewhat of a standard outside the Xbox One?

Well, I know the power brick itself would be compatible, just need a cable that goes into my wall outlet. An adapter wouldn't cost much more than a few euros and would very easily do the trick, but as said I'm a bit sceptic on long term use of such with
expensive electronics.

Nor would I really want to get into the nightmare that would be dealing with warranty with german MS reps.

I even have a "local" Xbox One preordered, but we don't have a release date yet.. it will be end of february and early march when the first really interesting games for me come to Xbox One (there's a few current titles, but Im not in a hurry to buy the console
for them), so unless we start hearing a release date for Finland by halfway through february, I guess I'm just gonna import one and sell the extra one. There was a rumor of it possibly delaying till august, but there was nothing really trustworthy about that
rumor.
